Beautiful keepsake from Costa Rica, bought on the beach in Tamarindo: Guanacaste wood platter and bowl bought from Nestor, an immigrant from Nicaragua who got stuck in CR during c19. Paid $50 for the platter, which was probably a bit over, and after we had a “we don’t speak the same language but we both speak the universal language of common humanity” chat, he threw in the salsa bowl for “free”. I hope Nestor makes it back to his family for Christmas!
